For its part, David R. Godine, Publisher, is celebrating National Poetry Month with a daily giveaway of Godine and Black Sparrow titles.
The publisher's daily Twitter (@GodinePub) contest focuses on general poetry and publishing knowledge, as well as the histories of Godine and Black Sparrow. Daily winners then select their favorite library, which will be entered into a drawing. Three libraries will be chosen to receive a curated collection of Black Sparrow poetry titles.
David Godine is famous for composing personalized thank-you notes on his classic IBM Selectric typewriter for every order received. Each winner of the current contest will receive a personalized letter typed on the legendary Selectric.
